I beleive the reason is that Java, by its very nature, is MUCH slower
than C.

Another thought I had was that it would be easier to make python cross-platform if it was written in Java and let the Java developers worry about the C-level platform dependencies.  Isn't it also possible to write Java extensions in C?  (read: ... python extensions in C (using the Java interpreter))
